“The purpose of Community Planning is to move our entire region forward and ensure we are utilising and maximising all of our assets and resources in line with the aspirations of our stakeholders. I would encourage as many of our residents, businesses and communities to join in on this process and have their say on what the new Derry City and Strabane District Council will look like. If you have an interest or area of expertise I would encourage you to get in contact with us and find out more,” he said.
